SohailPistawala · 4th June 2008, 15:35

Bayside Blue Brother. I am sure she will look killer.

danlalan · 4th June 2008, 20:33

what the.... I thought you wanted WHITE.... why are there so many BLUES...You white ditcher

Id stick to white. And i have know you also want white. Are you sure our Indian Painters will be able to do all these Different Shades of Blue...??? Theres a 100% chance of them saying "saab yeh toh voh hi blue hai.. Aap dhup meh jah ke dekhlo" Hope it doest look like gujrati Blue in the end(No offence to any one).
I think GT4 has a paint booth...or GT5..try it in there....

Arush helped us with the paint and bodywork of our FSAE car last year.

Here is a pic of the car. The shade is very similar to the subaru blue. I think he must knowing the paint codes for this shade.

Micky - I prefer the Blue on the 350. White usually never looks good on the Type 1 OHC.

nitroxx · 6th June 2008, 18:17

Thanks Ishan I think we'll be working on that color very closely. Still need to get the bug outta my head for the R34 blue yaar...what do I do?

Are you getting your OHC repainted at Pervez's place?

abhik · 6th June 2008, 21:16

Check out Viper's OHC Type II. I guess if you want white then that colour would be a good option

nitroxx · 6th June 2008, 22:10

No GTO..I'm painting it myself at our own place. I'm taking help from the guys at pervez's place to make sure that I get the color on perfectly. Any suggestions?

nitroxx · 7th June 2008, 01:25

The Daytona blue B17 is the american / australian name for the color.
Monterey blue effect is the asia pacific name and code is P6755

autopsyche · 7th June 2008, 02:02

You could also try the Viper GTS Pearl Blue, it really has a very deep pearlascent feel to it while being on the darker side.

GTO · 7th June 2008, 11:30

I'd go with the bayside blue & titanium wheels.
